Residential Roofing

Is it time to repair or replace your residential roof? Not sure? Here are some signs to look for that will tell you it’s time to consider it:

Do you notice any signs of water damage or leaking? Are there places where the roof deck is sagging? Do you see any dark spots or trails, which show where water has been? When you’re in your home, can you see sunlight or outside light coming in from the outside? When you’re outside, can you see cracked shingles or do you have missing roofing shingles?

If you answered “yes” to these questions, it’s time to consider repairing your roof – or getting a new roof. It is better to be proactive and repair the problems now. If you put it off, your home can suffer a lot of damage. The cost of repairing the current damage will be a lot less than repairing future damages to a roof falling in or water damage and mold removal from a large leak.

Installing a new residential roof or repairing your current roof can greatly improve the look of your home. The value of your home will increase, as well.

If you are planning to sell your home, you should definitely consider replacing your roof or repairing any damage right away. If you roof is damaged, it will not pass the inspection and you won’t be able to sell it unless it passes. You will be responsible for paying for the failed inspection. Why wait for that to happen?

Of course, you don’t have to be thinking about selling your home to replace or repair you roof. As we mentioned earlier, there are too many reasons to repair problems early, rather than wait for more damage to occur.
